Come here if you just want to dance and have a good time surrounded by likeminded people. Expect top notch music, 360 degrees of screens for an impressive audio/visual experience, great drinks, and a fun crowd. If all the dancing gives you an appetite, head to the Cabaret Bar where you can order small food plates.

Bowery Electric guarantees you a night of debauchery, whether you dance the night away to some throwback 80s music or rock out to an awesome indie band. It's the best of a nightclub and a bar all rolled into one, without the snobbiness of some of the trendier clubs in town.

Great DJs, chilled relaxed multicultural vibe. It's one of the best places to go dancing if you don't like big clubs. It's two tiny floors with some really cool metal work on the windows by local female metalsmith.

Visit The Bell House for a good time. It has all the components of a good time, including a lounge for more relaxed drinking, a sizable dance floor for drunken rubbing, and a food truck parked just outside for midnight munching. It isn't the most centrally located bar in Brooklyn - but it is worth the bus ride.
